A Branston teenager who illegally entered the country has been jailed.

Justas Vasiliauskas, 19, of Marlow Drive, Branston, appeared in court to admit breaching a deportation order.

Southern Derbyshire Magistrates' Court heard that on January 28 Vasiliauskas, who is not a British citizen, was found on the A38 at Derby, having knowingly entered the UK in breach of a deportation order. This is contrary to the Immigration Act.

He has been sentenced to 14 weeks at a young offenders' institution and was ordered to pay a £115 victim surcharge.

The Home Office cannot comment on individual cases but said the deportation order still stands. He could now be kicked out of the country.

What is a deportation order

If you’re made subject to a deportation order you will be required to leave the UK.

The order will authorise your detention until such a time as you are deported.

It will also prohibit you from re-entering the country for as long as it is in force and will invalidate any leave to enter or remain in the UK given to you before the order was made.
